Background

I am New Zealand born and educated having graduated from the Auckland University School of Medicine in 1986. After completing postgraduate plastic surgical training in New Zealand, I was admitted to Fellowship of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons in 1993.

A further three years of postgraduate plastic surgery training were spent in the United Kingdom and United States. This included one year in Atlanta, Georgia, at the prestigious Emory University Department of Plastic Surgery, where I studied under the guidance of two of America’s leading plastic surgeons.

Since returning to New Zealand in 1996, I have developed and run training courses on endoscopic techniques for plastic surgeons from Australasia and Southeast Asia. Until November 2004 I was also Clinical Tutor in the University of Auckland Department of Surgery; a Consultant Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon at Middlemore and Kidz First hospitals; and a Visiting Plastic Surgeon to Auckland/North Shore hospitals and Starship Children’s Hospital.

My medical writings include chapter contributions to surgical textbooks, numerous articles on cosmetic and reconstructive surgery published in peer-reviewed journals, and I have been an invited guest lecturer at national and international surgical meetings and instructional courses.

Academic Affiliations/Training

I remain actively involved in the education of New Zealand’s young plastic surgical trainees and have participated in volunteer international surgical missions (Interplast) providing plastic surgery services to children in countries less privileged than our own.

I serve on the Editorial Board of the Aesthetic Surgery Journal, the preeminent international scientific publication for aesthetic surgery.

I was privileged to serve as President of the Australasian Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery from 2006 to 2008. I was Chairman of the Membership Committee for the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS) from 2008 to 2012 and the New Zealand National Secretary for ISAPS from 2007 to 2014.

I am a member (and former National Secretary & Treasurer) of the New Zealand Association of Plastic Surgeons, the Australasian Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons, and the New Zealand Foundation for Cosmetic Plastic Surgery. I was an active member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons from 1996 to 2009.

“Just wanted to say thanks again to you and your plastic surgical nurse. You guys have been amazing and I love my results. You couldn’t have made me feel any more comfortable and happy with the whole process from consultation to recovery.

If you guys need references or anything I would be more than happy to give one as I just hope anyone else wanting surgery knows how great you are.

I’ll be recommending you guys to everyone considering it and if I ever choose to do it again or need anything else done you will be the first place I come.”

“Just a quick note to thank you so much for all you have done for me over the past three years (I had a double mastectomy with breast implants). I am so pleased with the outcome and wish to thank you for being such a good doctor.”

R.G

“A very long overdue note of thanks to you and your lovely team for the wonderful breast reduction.

The look is great, the shoulder pain is gone, no rash since, my weight has been reduced and the most positive effect on me is actually not being aware of my breasts and that is sheer freedom and I believe in the true gift you gave to me. I thank you so much for that.”

“Janek, this card says it all! Thank you for the wonderful reconstruction of my nose. Some one once told me I didn’t have good looks but it didn’t matter as I had some personality. But like most women I do have some vanity. And to my eyes I look great, especially the nose. Thank you.”

H.D.

“I’d like to express my gratitude for the wonderful job you did on my nose – not just for the final result but for the professionalism of both you and your team throughout the process.

You made me feel comfortable and at ease, which I truly appreciated. It was a nerve-wracking process and I feel like you and your team genuinely cared for my wellbeing – both physically and emotionally. I now feel a huge sense of freedom as I no longer feel self-conscious about the way I look.”

“Thank you so much for everything. I have greatly appreciated your care and, of course, your great operating skills! I’ve been quite overwhelmed by your commitment to my case and for that I am truly grateful.”

M.B.

“I’d just like to say thank you for my wonderful new breasts. They are even better than I expected. I love them!

I’d also like to thank you for making me feel so comfortable about it. I was rather nervous and embarrassed when I first came to see you, but immediately you made me feel relaxed about everything.

You and your team have been a great support, understanding and encouraging. But most of all, you have been a wonderful doctor.”

H.B.

“To Janek and Karen C, I wanted to put into words how grateful I am to you both for the wonderful care you have shown me.

I am so thrilled with the result and only wish I had undertaken the surgery earlier! However, after dwelling on the idea for years, discussions with you put my fears and anxieties at bay and I couldn’t be happier.

You never made me feel that any question was too ridiculous and the levels of communication were fantastic. I also appreciated the privacy observed with regards to mail and gym suspension letters.

Whilst surgery carries obvious risks and complications you still managed to make it a fun and exciting experience but still maintaining utmost professionalism. I felt fully informed throughout the whole process.

Please extend my thanks to Dr Marshall too, all the theatre staff, office team and also Raewyn who took great care of me pre and post op. That first cup of tea was magic!

You were both highly recommended to me by two of my friends and you have exceeded my expectations.”
